(you can/can't) watch sicko for free (UPDATED 6-19)

last night i downloaded and watched what turned out to be a Really fffunnny movie.
the 40 year old virgin.
i laughed my ass off. (yes, i did finally find my ass a day or so after watching josephine's video, re: 2 posts back.)

the 40 yr old virgin flick is sappy, sexy, nasty, lame, funny as the day is long, sweet (are ya sick yet?), has more quotable lines than a whole season of simpsons reruns, and most of all, it's real in an oddly realistic way. the ending sucked, but i thoroughly identified with rest of the movie. check it out if you haven't already. and report back.

------------$-------------

now, sicko is an altogether different film, as i'm sure you're all aware.

sicko could only be described as *sweet* in a youngster's vernacular. as a geezer, sweet to me would be adam sandler movies or Riesen Chewy Chocolate Caramel covered candy, but sicko is suhweet in that other sense.

i didn't even have to download (swipe) it...and neither do you.
here's the link to SlCKO.
check it out, turkey!
UPDATE:
looks like the film's distributors are trying hard to sweep up all the "copies" of it online. so i deleted that link. sicko pops up every once in awhile, though.
as i type, it's available here:

otherwise, pony up your 7 bucks and go to the movie this weekend. you'll be glad you did.

and michael moore says...
he doesn't mind:

"I don't agree with the copyright laws and I don't have a problem with
people downloading the movie and sharing it with people," Moore said. "As long as
they're not doing it to make a profit off it, as long as they're not trying
to make a profit off my labor. I would oppose that. I make these books and
movies and TV shows because I want things to change and so the more people
that get to see them the better. I'm happy when that happens."

thank god for him - wait till you see this movie.
i hope y'all will pass this on to your friends.
IMOO, it's sadly realistic in a sad, but honest sorta way. and it's about much, much more than health care.
